<h2>Adventure walkthrough</h2>

This is not claimed to be an optimized walkthrough, but it comes reasonably
close and, if you don't get killed by a little dwarf and if the pirate shows
up before you finish, you can get all the points.
<p>
When you get well into the cave you will encounter some nasty dwarves.  The
first one simply tosses an axe at you and runs away.  The axe misses.  Get the
axe; you'll need it when you see the dwarves again.  On your second encounter
with the dwarves, you'll see one or more, who will throw knives at you.  The
first salvo always misses.  Toss the axe at a dwarf, fetch it again, and keep
tossing until you have killed all the dwarves present.  You'll need to do this
each time a dwarf appears.  If you don't, you'll get killed.  (Be sure to
retrieve the axe after you have killed the last dwarf that is with you.)
<p>
Don't worry if a pirate appears and steals your treasures from you.  You'll
find them again later on.
<p>
Walkthrough:  Answer "no" when you are asked if you want instructions.

<p>
If all went well, you have finished with a maximum score.
<p>
If the pirate never appears, you probably won't make it.  When you reach the
dead end where the chest is supposed to be, you could backtrack (if you know
how) through the maze and then forward again until he appears.  If this takes
too many turns your lamp batteries will wear out before the end game, and then
it's tough beans.
